A poem from the depths of a heart-broken soul.

A Hymn to Heartache 

Clutching my heart as it becomes clear. 

Unbearable pain.  Eyes surrender a tear. 

Trembling hands cover tear-streaked face. 

A blind desire to be some other place. 

The world can do nothing to ease the pain. 

Even God throws his punch with a dismal rain. 

I wonder who would ever seek to console 

This empty heart and this lonely soul. 

Sitting alone, my heart feeling destroyed, 

I echo my sorrows into the void. 

Who will hear my cry? Who would even care? 

Is this case of mine really so rare? 

I am what's left when one's heart truly breaks. 

The very epitome of the word "heartache."
